Yeah, not a big fan of WBUL for the same reason.

wouldn't that be funny! :P
considering many of the young Al fans I know and/or knew's music diet consisted of strictly Radio Disney and/or contemporary Christian music, Al putting out a Parental Advisory label album would be a huge mistake.

I'd still buy the thing anyway though.

Wow, I didn't know PA tags and suggestive themes were such harsh problems for some people out there.

To each their own and all that, but in this world, you people against the above would need to climb into a box so you didn't see any of that in the real world :huh:

I'm not attacking anyone, just saying.

(Plus, I personally love WBUL - it's just so funny...)

Allright, I ahvent really read that much and I dont know what WBUL is but, as far as Parental Advisorys go, you can stick one on an album that doesnt even have words, and NOT stick one on an album that only has swear words, basically its up to the label. I think that Parental Advisorysd are starting to lose effect anyway, but maybe its because I dont care either.

sorry about the double post.

I agree to an extent but the thing is, it isnt the people that want the album that wont buy it, but some paretns wont let their kids get a cd with the sticker. Plus, some parents actually make the right decisons because kids are friggen idiots and copy that stuff.

suggestive lyrics???

are you kids retarded?

does no one remember the lyrics to past polkas?

in "hooked on polkas" frankie goes to hollywood's "relax" was about ejaculation

in "polka your eyes out" divinyls' "i touch myself" was about masturbation

do i have to go on?

that's what's so great about putting these songs in a polka send up. it exposes the songs for cheap salacious drivel that they are. that's the joke!!

No way. Suggestive themes, of which there really aren't any on this album (at least that I know of), are not going to grab a Parental Advisory. Al would have to really let loose on the curse words to get something like that. There was originally speculation that he might put a parody of a PA sticker on the cover, but everyone agreed that it would confuse people.
Oh by the way, I've cracked the code.

To get a PA label you have to say the F and S words a bunch of times. Suggestive themes, or even words like "ass" won't get you a label. And I'm pretty sure you can get away with saying the F bomb or the S word like once or twice and not get a label.
